I think it's important to keep in mind that the kind of couples who are happy to talk about their relationship on radio are not representative of the full spectrum of couples who have "stayed together". For example, my parents represent a marriage that should have been ended decades ago for the sake of the children, but due to a range of factors including concern for financial security, dislike/fear of the legal system, and personal psychological dysfunction, their marriage and co-habitation persists, despite the fact that it is an extremely psychologically unhealthy "partnership". They would never speak about this publicly of course.
